The biggest surprise in the transfer market and the biggest shock for Barcelona fans!

Al-Nassr officially signed Barcelona defender Anigo Martinez on a free transfer,

meaning he left for free, all so that Barcelona could register players before the start of La Liga!

This decision will cause a major crisis because Anigo Martinez was the leader of Hans Flick’s defensive line and the one who directed the entire line.

He is also the best defender in building play and breaking lines, and the only left-footed defender on the team!

This man hasn’t been a regular starter for two years

and had the option to unilaterally terminate his contract, but he didn’t do so because his only desire was to play for Barcelona.

This type of player cannot be replaced until he has given his all!

Barcelona is starting the season and their only defender is Gerard Martin.

God was literally helping Hans Flick!

The biggest shock for Barcelona fans

Barcelona’s current defenders

None of them are as good as Gerard Martin, who is actually a left back.

Flik played him in the last friendly match as a left center back.

Flik knew about Martinez’s conversation and has been preparing himself since then to use Martin in that position.

It’s going to be really difficult.

Officially

Anigo will join Ronaldo at Al-Nasr and will form a formidable duo with Simakan in defense.

This guy had a really excellent season.

His leadership on the line in offside traps and his direction with signals were enough to make him a real manager on the field.

That’s not to mention his saves, playmaking, and breaking lines with his passing.

That’s a story in itself.

One of the most important players in Hans Flick’s system has left for Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia!

The deal is shocking to me because Iñigo Martínez is a key player in Flick’s system.

He is the defender who is primarily responsible for the build-up phase, more so than Pau Cubarsi.

Barcelona has no replacement with the same characteristics.

The replacement will definitely be Uruguayan Ronald Araujo,

who has greater physical strength but fewer technical and intelligent solutions than Anigo Martinez, which are Araujo’s weaknesses.

Anigo is leaving for free in exchange for giving up his salary for next season,

of course, in order to increase Barcelona’s ability to sign Rashford and Garcia.
